Master’s work explores the mobile device targeting education, virtual learning system deployment in school. The aim of the research is design and install in Vilnius Gabijos gymnasium virtual and distance learning system based on mobile devices. The main objectives are as follows – make learning methods analysis for mobile devices using, analyze opportunities for virtual learning methods deployment in Vilnius Gabijos gymnasium, create and test virtual and distance learning system via mobile devices. In a theoretical part is made analysis of the scientific literature on mobile devices in learning. Examine virtual and distance learning installations at educational institutions. The method of a survey has been applied for the empirical research. Carried out three surveys. The first study was conducted in March 2014, respondents – students. Two other surveys carried out in November 2014 and 2015 April.

Studies have found that mobile devices the students have are available in sufficient quantities for distance learning and learners, often uses a complex of smart communications functions and are highly skilled use of mobile devices in learning. Among students and teachers is a positive attitude to the virtual and distance learning. “Smart Technologies” equipment technical characteristics allow to increase learning efficiency. Based on study results it is designed and installed virtual and distance learning system, designed integrate mobile devices for the learning purposes. Basic conclusions: fully deploying a virtual learning system in Gabijos gymnasium mobile devices will be used for new training methods. Most effectively virtual and distance learning functions for the “Apple iPad” mobile devices, learning management system “Gabijos Moodle” and “Smart Technologies” equipment in combining into a single system. Based on this master thesis, designed and installed the system in 2015 school year will be used fully for Vilnius Gabijos gymnasium virtual and distance learning performance. |
